I think I have a problem...



I have been forced to reorganize my attire, since (after living here about ten months) I went out and bought myself a ridiculous amount of sorely needed coat-hangers a few days ago. Because of that I have come to a realization: I have a problem...

We can start off in the excess, but not in mental illness, part of my clothing collection. As you can see I spent a lot of time and energy on finding the perfect clothes. The problem however, is that the perfect piece of clothing is an ever-changing idea; constantly changing behind my eye-balls. These divine ideas see no economy, Sundays, curriculum or appointments.
It leads to eight pairs of sunglasses, numerous bracelets, rings, vintage earrings, bandannas, scarves, necklaces, handbags and oddly intentional-looking piles of stuff on my bed (right).
And
last
but
not
least

It anguishes my core to write and therefore accept that this staircase of shoes is not even half the shoes I own... Hunger, poverty, violence, abuse and 23 pairs of shoes...

Douche'ing it up!

This is indisputably my blog and therefore I take this opportunity to blow my own horn. I had just had coffee and accompanied to the train a sexy farmlicious friend of mine when I decided to check out the home of Cheap Monday, Acne, Surface 2 Air etc. the shop Freudian Kicks and so I did. Once inside the shop I realized there was some kind of photo-shoot ending. I swallowed my curiosity, listened to my tunes and looked through the wonderfully expensive sexiness on the shelves.

As I perused a gorgeous man-cake kept smiling at me; I thought he might be the merchant and therefore I smiled and said "Hey" just as I realized he had an expencive looking camera over his sholder...
Photographer: "What do you do?"
Me: (Removing earplugs and looking confused) "Um...Sorry?"
Photographer: "What do you do?"
Me: "I'm a student."
Photographer: "Really? Your not in fashion?"
Me: "Um... No, just a student."
Photographer: "You should really be doing something in fashion; You have a beautiful... shape, and I think you could take some great pictures!"
Me: *Giggle* (red-faced and mumbling) "Really? Thank you!"
That's where I got uncomfortable and sweaty, and therefore smiled my best Good Bye smile and went on my way... But, he really made my day!

If I can't find a job soon maybe I should try this fashion thing. How one gets into fashion I don't know, but I think I could figure it out if I try. I would love to be able to make money from being tall, thin, weird looking and loosely limbed!

Embracing my flamboyant hipster-ism





Boy Crisis is an American Proto-Post Popular Music Band from the United States following the Rhythm & Blues Tradition of such classic acts as The Ronettes and New Edition, carrying on the Great Western practice of cultural appropriation in an attempt to forge at least some semblance of interpersonally translatable empathy and compassion and at most, true love. Two useful terms a music journalist might feel compelled to use in describing them would be: "danceable" and "pop hooks." Boy Crisis is a "Brooklyn buzz band." They are well-liked in the blogosphere. They are hip and marketable to several youthy demographics. They have "crossover appeal." They have an "ethnic band member." Boy Crisis is a semi-cosmic cultural entity. Their spaced-out vibe is totally tubular. They are the conundrum of masculinity and youth. They are a limited liability corporation. (MySpace)

Too lucky for my own face

In the past I have been reluctant to attempt to disprove karma, although I have always had my doubts towards the teachings of Carson Daly and his missionary whose Name Is Earl, but seriously karma...

I have been sneaking on the public transport/moving trash-heap of Oslo for about a month now, hearing tales of people getting caught sneaking all around me and yes I have had my share of flickering eye-movement, suspicious staring and boogie-woogeing libs, but I have not seen a single ticket checking dude or dudette.

Today however, I finally managed to locate the student office to pick up my semester card and took the time to buy the illustrious student card for public transportation. Thus I proudly stamped my card and stepped onto the tube as a good citizen paying her transportation dues.

About thirty seconds later I absent-mindedly step of the tube at Jernbanetorget with my mobile to my hear and what do I see?! Yes, it is a blue clad army of ticket inspectors scowling at me with their narrow inspector eyes smelling my surprise and guilt.

Sadly for them I whipped out my freshly purchased and stamped card with my best Mona Lisa expression, let them stare at it unbelievingly for a bit and then I triumphantly walked past them.

Karma, have you forgotten me or am I still feeling the good karma from my early refusals to knock on peoples doors as most children of Jehovah Witnesses are somewhat coerced to do?
